Frequently Asked Questions

Can I receive both workers compensation and Social Security disability benefits?
Yes, these are separate programs with different rules. Workers compensation provides lost wages and medical coverage for work-related injuries. Social Security Disability Insurance provides monthly benefits for any condition preventing work. Many injured workers qualify for both, though benefit coordination rules may apply.
What evidence is needed for a Social Security disability claim?
The Social Security Administration requires detailed medical evidence showing your condition limits your ability to work. This includes doctor's reports, test results, imaging, and statements about your functional limitations. Herbert Chestnut & Associates helps gather and present this evidence effectively.
How long do Social Security disability appeals take?
Initial applications typically take several months to process. If denied, administrative appeals can take one to two years or longer. Having an attorney from the beginning can expedite the process and improve approval chances at each stage.
